Nomenclature New name for Cirratulus norvegicus [sensu McIntosh, 1911] which Southern thought was a junior homonym (it is not). Southern included new specimens from Ireland. Thus the status of Cirratulus mcintoshi probably needs additional research. The work in which C. mcintoshi was moved to Aphelochaeta is not known, but the recombination is in Bellan (2001) [details]From other sources
Type locality Atlantic Ocean, Ireland [details]
